The Great Eastern Run for HSC · 13 October 2024 ·

We are a mental health awareness and suicide prevention charity for people working and living in rural and agricultural communities, and their support networks, across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire. Founded by Kate Scott and Lewis Hunter to create a positive legacy in memory of their brothers, Robert and Max, who both lost their lives to suicide, our aim is to to make vital support, training and education accessible to everyone who needs it in communities we care passionately about. To help people see that there is hope. To stop them reaching the same crisis point as Robert and Max. And to prevent other families going through what Kate and Lewis’ families have experienced.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running the Perkins Great Eastern Half Marathon in memory of my father who sadly took his own life in January this year.

I have chosen a local charity to raise money for which is "The Rural Communities Mental Health" A new charity that was set up this year to create a positive legacy in memory of two friends of mine who took their own lives in 2014 and 2019 at just 29 and 28. Just like my father they had grown up and worked on their family farms and were very much part of our rural community.

Recognising the lack of dedicated mental health and suicide prevention charities, RCMH are determined to make vital support, training and education accessible to anyone working and living in these communities, or supporting someone who does, across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire.
